batman, I use 7 pts. as the minimum spread for college and pro games. That requires the favorite to score twice to beat you and I use 28 as the upper limit as the total unless it is more than a 7 pt. spread and then I've gone to 35 totals as the upper limit (those totals only show up in college games). Both college and pro have hit at just over 69% for the year with those parameters for the FIRST HALF only.

This season college is 117-51-13 and pros are 23-10-3 using those parameters. You have to have discipline and bet them all. You can't pick and choose because you never know which ones will come in.

More than 7 pt spread and total upper limit 35. So any total over 35 is a no go?

has anyone ever tried a "RR"...2 teamers are great, but why pick soooo many plays. I look for my best 3 or 4 max for the day, o/u, lay/take the points and pound the (shy)....to many teams cause a lot of losses- thats why you handicap not pot luck plays.

l2b, You can play the 35 or more totals for the first half but you need well into double digit spreads to do it. I usually pass any 35 or more total like Houston last night (although it was a winner).

power, last year first half betting was working fine for the pros with the 7 pt. spreads or more. Winning percentage was virtually the same for pros and college last year.

mtg, after looking at 4 years of data, I've come to the conclusion that you are better off NOT handicapping the games. Once your opinion is thrown into the mix you're fighting the percentages. Playing all the qualifying games, you spread your risk around and you are going to hit 65%+ of your plays. In football, an interception here a fumble there and your handicapping goes right out the window. Let the percentages work for you. It's just math. Math is a constant, an oblong football is not.

USC, no plays in the NFL this week. I just use any 1st half spread of 7 or more with any total 28 or under for the pros. These won't show up probably for a couple of weeks when they get banged up and we see who the real crap teams are.

Do any offshore books take these kind of bets and if so can u please send me a message as too which one or ones do. Thanks

Good grief. After all the explanations in earlier pages, here comes the one-post idiot asking what has been answered on page 1 already (and several times after that)

Question: the books troll Covers and other forums as well. What makes you guys think they won't make adjustments after they read this thread, do the math and realize they still have a loophole with regards to the 1H? I know the system's been successful for 3 yrs running, but still...
